#480 The first time I see a jogger smiling, I'll consider it

Joan Rivers 

This post has taken me way longer than it should have, because I was doing it as a home & garden/fashion mix, even took all the pics, but then decided I hated them, binned them and am doing the two posts separately.  As you can see, ZZ is still having fun messing with her mesh heads, and took advantage of this great new pose pack by Nantra for The Instruments.  It comprises 6 poses plus mirrors, along with 2 mobile phone props with mirrors. 

These new ones capris from Doc Eldritch made me squee a bit, because I love capris and have struggled to find just the right pair - and now I have!  They are really well constructed, with realistic creases and shading and come in a great selection of colours (individual or fatpack), with a hud to change hardware and belt texture.  They are compatible with all the major mesh bodies (demo first of course!) plus classic avatar.

My shirt from Just Because comes in a plethora of beautiful colours and is compatible with Maiteya Lara, both Slink bodies and all the Belleza bodies.  Both of the designers featured have colour palettes that I adore - nothing so bright you need pixel sunglasses to look at them, but deep, rich gorgeous tones.  Add that to their fantastic original mesh builds and superlative textures, these are both designers I would recommend to anyone.

#397 ZsaZsa in the Mist

Today's post began with this amazing jewelry set by Zuri Rayna accompanied by a notecard suggesting a step into the fantasy world.  I enjoy a challenge and fantasy is a genre I always really enjoy playing with, but don't do enough of, so this challenge was one I really liked.  The Mist Elite set from Zuri is absolutely stunning, very detailed, and allows you to customise every part independently - I chose black pearls and white opals on gold for this look.

I adore the new Elikatira hair with a vintage vibe which is available at the latest round of Cosmopolitan Sales Room. Unusually for me I have gone for the whites palette, and found this beautiful white with a faint hint of blue, the wonderfully named raindrop.

My gorgeous skin is from Lumae, as are my ears - Lumiya is very generous with her appliers and they are included in the pack.  My gown is from Tashi is available at the current round of The Instruments, and feels very elegant with the train flowing down the back - it comes with a hud allowing 6 colour choices.
